Save time by verifying your identity electronically

Before we can provide you with financial products or services, we're required to collect information from you to verify your identity. This requirement applies to Australian financial institutions such as ANZ under the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act.

To make this as simple as possible, there are two methods we can use to verify your identity: Electronic Verification or Manual Document Verification.

Electronic Verification

This is a convenient, fast and secure way to verify your identity. By using items most people carry with them, such as a Driver Licence and Medicare card, we're able to match your details against information held by external data sources to complete the verification process.

A service provider is used to manage the matching process.

We use the external data sources listed below. These include credit reporting agencies and it's important to note that Electronic Verification is not a credit report and does not impact your credit file or your credit eligibility.
